The Prince finds out that there is still one more girl in the house. Once Cinderella is freed from her cell, she tries on the slipper. It is a perfect fit. The Prince takes Cinderella with him to his castle. A royal wedding takes place at the palace and Cinderella and the Prince live happily ever. [Aaron Green;The Cinderella Ballet: A Synopsis of the Cinderella Ballet; From Riches to Rags to Riches Again]
